Hello, my name is Damir Tokača from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and I am 20 year old student. I attend Faculty, and like my other colleagues, we have different visions and perspectives about life in general. Unlike others, my vision in life is something different. I attend to challenge myself in every way, from physical to educational, but educational is far more important. IT education is far my favorite field of knowledge because in this modern era you must be IT educated, not just because society demands it, but because we need it in every angle of our lives. I love Computers and numerous computer programs since I was little, and I must say that I am very proud of myself to develop that passion towards computers and IT education in my childhood.

In my opinion, MOS certificate is a motivation for me personally, to make me work harder and better to be successful in various aspects of my life in general. Thanks to this certificate, I will attend to pass all other exams in IT field.

I would strongly recommend to anyone, who has chosen to work with Computers, IT sectors, etc. , to take the MOS exam, because it will improve your life standards and it will secure future employment or employment right now. This certificate secured my future and my employment and it will give me far larger career choices than now.

My name is Nikola Manov and I am 16 years old. I attend high school and, as all of my peers, I have my own life visions. My love towards computers and their numerous programs it`s immense.

I am successful in this field because I do this since very young age, and I am proud to say that I continue to develop and make progress each and every day.

For me personally, the MOS certificate is what motivates me to work even harder, in order to succeed in various areas of my life. Thanks to this certificate, I am now more successful and I would dearly love to also pass the other exams of this field.

I strongly recommend the MOS certificate to all my peers and everyone who has chosen to work with computers, because, in my opinion, in contemporary days the certification means securing safer future concerning my future employment. I will continue to work devotedly doing future research, because I see computing both as my current and future career choice.

Microsoft Office certification has a huge significance and is very appreciated in every area of life, especially in the education system and career building. When I first saw the opportunity to take the exam, I was very happy because since the youngest age I have been interested in computers, technology and everything linked with it. It was pretty complex with the tons of tabs, detailed options, uncommonly used features. However, I had been committed to practicing- I was determined to get a good score. I must admit it was a challenge, but I have always been an opportunist. Knowing the great value the certificate possesses, I was thinking about how well would it look in my curriculum vitae. MOS qualification isn’t easy to get and is very beneficial when it comes to applying for a high school. The certificate is internationally recognized and impresses everyone, so it enormously increases my chances of winning a full scholarship for studying in the private school I’ve always dreamt about.

It also affects the self-satisfaction and self-esteem in a positive way; it fills you with joy and enthusiasm for further success and upgrading yourself. The skills you learn while preparing for the examination are useful because we get in touch with the technology every day, so more than just a basic knowledge is necessary for successfully finishing the chores and activities which require working with Microsoft Office. I think that this certificate is going to help me a lot in the future too, because it’s an excellent bonus for employment as well.

Microsoft Office Specialist Success story of Kristijan Markov

It's the age of modern technology and everyone should know how to operate computers. Not that it's obligatory but it makes life easier. That's one of the reasons why I recommend MOS certification to anyone. In addition to that it opens up job opportunities and looks great on any resume.

Microsoft Office Specialist Success story of Sasha Kranjac

Sasha Kranjac is a Microsoft Certified Trainer from Slovenia. He finished his studies in Systems and network security at the University of Milan, Italy. He has taken the Microsoft Office Specialist Excel 2013 exam winning 942 points and few other Microsoft Office exams.

When asked why he decided to take the MOS exam he answered that he did it “to be competitive and recognize the expertise”. He says that owning official Microsoft certificate helped him to get more engagements and claims that his knowledge in MS Office tools had been a tremendous help in completing his everyday work tasks. His colleagues often ask him for advice and he gladly shares his knowledge and helps them complete their everyday work tasks, contributing to better work results.

He believes that owning MOS certificate shows dedication in learning, a proof that you have knowledge, and if you don’t - that you will learn faster and better than others. He does his work and his researches most exclusively in Office. He also believes that having an official Microsoft certificate will be considered as advantage in a way that it shows knowledge, persistence and dedication - a wish to know more. He got his job as a Microsoft Certified Trainer because he was a Microsoft Certified Professional. At the end, when asked in what way he thinks having the MOS certificate distinguishes him from his colleagues, he said that it shows hands-on experience and the necessary skills to do the job effectively. Knowing and having extra knowledge is always a benefit.

Microsoft Office Specialist Success story of Petra Trafela

Petra Trafela is a young woman from Slovenia who, during her student days, took the Microsoft Office Specialist Exams for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Access and she won high scores in all of them. She has a degree in Electronic business, which she got when she finished her studies at the Faculty of Economics and Business in Maribor, Slovenia. Now, she is an employee in the business sector.

“I was a student at the time. MS Office tools are used in almost every job out there. I believe it's necessary for everyone to take this exam. I knew that this extra knowledge and certificates would help my future employee to recognize that I'm capable and eager to learn”, she answered when asked why she decided to take the MOS exam. Owning official Microsoft certificate helped her a lot with her employment in a way that she won extra points by showing her extra knowledge in Excel. She also says that her knowledge in Microsoft Office tools helps her in completing her everyday tasks and that it enables her to work on more complex tasks in Office.

On the other hand, it unburdens her everyday workload since she shares her knowledge in MS office tools with her other colleagues which helps them complete their everyday work tasks and results with mutual benefit. When asked to point a certain way or experience in which having an official Microsoft certificate was considered as an advantage she said “I was having an interview for my first student job. Last question was directly connected to Excel. I got the job, because I knew the answer”.And finally, when asked in what way she thinks having the MOS certificate distinguish someone from their colleagues, she answered that in that way you show the world that you are proactive and eager to learn, as well as prepared to do extra steps towards achieving your goals.
